Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Laparoscopic adenomectomy is an established procedure for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
  • Progressive simplification has led to techniques like "knotless" laparoscopic adenomectomy.
  • This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of the knotless technique in clinical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the effectiveness of "knotless" laparoscopic adenomectomy.
  • To evaluate the safety profile of this simplified surgical approach.
  • To demonstrate the reproducibility of the technique in a clinical setting.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective, multicenter, descriptive study of 26 patients with large BPH (>80cc).
  • Extraperitoneal laparoscopic technique using 4 trocars, ultrasonic scalpels, and barbed sutures.
  • Key steps include hemostatic enucleation, direct vision urethral sectioning, and capsulorrhaphy.

Main Results:

  • The study included patients with a mean prostate volume of 127cc.
  • Mean operative time was 136 minutes with a mean estimated blood loss of 200cc.
  • All patients showed improved urinary function and quality of life, with a low complication rate (6/26 patients, 5 minor).

Conclusions:

  • "Knotless" laparoscopic adenomectomy is a low-complexity procedure.
  • It combines benefits of open surgery (functional results) with laparoscopic advantages (reduced bleeding, shorter stay).
  • Ultrasonic scalpels and barbed sutures enhance safety, hemostasis, and procedural simplicity.
